brooks said she only recently learned that the phone of the young murder victim, milly dowler, had been targeted. >> it seems incredible that you, as the editor, were so unaware of such fundamental issues to do with this investigation. >> i just.. i think... in some ways, just the opposite-- i don't know anyone in their right mind who would authorize, know, sanction, approve of anyone listening to the voice mails of milly dowler in those circumstances. >> brown: brooks was arrested on sunday, and she repeatedly said today there were things she could not discuss due to the ongoing investigation. but she did say she has lasting regrets that everything did not come out long ago. >> of course, i have regrets. i mean, the idea that milly dowler's phone was accessed by someone being paid by n.o.t.w., or worse, authorized by someone at n.o.t.w., is abhorrent to me, as it is to everyone in this room. my ultimate regret that the speed in which we found out has been too slow. >> brown: like the murdochs, brooks, too, was questioned about her ties to prime ministers-- past and present-- amid charg
